pfffffft
So did Louis XIV
Traditionalism is itself reactionary
No shit
He made the state.
And? You just said moments ago that he wasn't the state.
Reactionary movements are not traditional
FUCKING LOL
He is the state.
As it's his kingdom
😂
Traditionalism is more of a philosophical than strictly political label
If God is in the sky.
Then he is on the ground
One god with one son and one king.
They are peers.
Middle East during the time of writting of New Testament wasn' the greatest powerhouse of political thought tbh ^^
Read the orations of Constantine.
Catholic conception of power is decadent
Goatfuckers weren't smart enough to come up with this shit.
There is no Catholicism then.
Or really Christianity not pietas.
For most "Christians"
Then.
"Goatfuckers" could be smart
Christianiry adopted info European sacred Kingship
But that's not the point
Whixj the goatfuckers didn't have.
They had davidic Kingship
The point is, Biblical conception of power is essentially the one of self-fulfilling failiure
Teach people that all the suffering in the world is bound to happen and that hey shouldn't resist corruption
Teach them contempt for power
When society naturally collapses - "See, we told you so !"
Christianity taught Western men to embrace humanism, and when West, the pillar of civilizaton collapsed - "There, the end of the World is coming just as we promissed"
Well, no shit
@The Enlightened Shepherd Or perhaps the point being offered by more serious theologians is that one should not abandon their leaders just because they are not perfect?
I disagree that Chrstianity taught the embrace of humanism, just Medici fetishists.
Unfortunatelly, most of theologians are essentially wizards, making you see things that there simply aren't
That's the power of theology
Jesus Christ "I came here to separate children from their parents, husbands from their wives" (paraphrazing)
